it will have a excellent story line, that will make you want to play the game more and more, excellent ai, you get reallt involved, the best part is that you can blow ANYTHING up and it will leave realilistic damage

Even with the slowdown, the Geo-mod engine is awesome.  It\'s just a sign of things to come in the future.

The Geo Mod engine is great but I don\'t think that it\'s a revolution.

i think it will become a revoulution, when people see we want more real game they will have to fo this type of thing, as its already been done. just like when gran turismo came out, all racing games were compared to it, or when mgs came out, all of a sudden games had stealth in it. Maybe it wont be as good as expected, but its a step in the right direction, its better they made a game with this much though than kept too the old formula, we need games like this to breathe new life into the games industry

Yeah I agree. GeoMod isn\'t amazing but it certainly is a refreshing extra to the tried and tested FPS genre.

Is there is a limit to how much you can blow up. I mean wouldnt making a massive tunnel but constantly making it bigger, prehaps with a rocket launcher and unlimited ammo cheat eventually make the level too large and therefore cause the game to crash ?

There is a limit to what you can blow up in the game i.e reinforced walls to limit the destruction and keep the player in the right direction.  So you can blow ALMOST everything up.

Er... yeah. Im not even going to justify that with an insult back. Did you not get my joke ? Maybe the ;) might of helped. Either way its Geo-mod / bad programming which is causing the slowdown. Slowdown is a fact in the game. I\'ve never said that slowdown ruins a game as being anything other than my opinion. Ill remember to insult you next time you have an opinion.

Now run along and spam another 450 odd posts in 2 months.

Well I am sort of half serious. You were right in saying that I think slowdown in games is bad, because I do. In my opinion though it ruins it, i never said that was a fact.

I just thought Geo-Slowdown sounded funny. ;)

Anyway as far as im concerned its water under the bridge.

I heard that the story is so good that it may overpower the fancy new engine in terms of why you would want to play this game

Even with the slowdown this game is going to rock.  Yes, it may be annoying with the slowdown but i have feeling it will go unnoticed in the middle of a big gunfight with all the explosions going on.  Besides if the soryline is good to the slowdown wont even be discussed
